I admire good scientific writers, especially the ones with some great sense of humor and creativity. I think that writing is a skill everyone should have and I enjoy writing. Most especially, I love to bring deeply technical quantum logic into the limelight where both a novice and an expert would engage.

I would love to improve my creativity in scientific essay and academic writing. Academic papers are written for scholars and readers with background on the subject, but I would like to develop a more creative approach to academic and essay writing. This implies that i am keen to improve my creativity in essay writing.

Do I wanna stop? NEVER! I have a lot to discover. I have plunged my imaginations into the qubits, Quantum Algorithms both NISQ and Fault-tolerant. I want to explore areas in Cavity- QED, Photonic sensors, Neuromorphic Photonics, Quantum Networks, Data key distribution and Quantum internet infrastructure. I have a lot going on in my head which I would love to discuss with like-minded, but how unfortunate of me right now. I live in my lonely head. I think about it everyday. I ask questions I can not find answers to. I am dead curious about the application of Physics-informed models in phase transition. Have I made a mess of my neural systems? NO!

I remember vividly that it all started with Computational Neuroscience, when I could not rest but think of ionic channels as a chain of entangled particles. I have explored Computational Neuroscience in great depths. Yet, I am alone, cold and in need of a Mentor.

Well, this is copy of myself telling the other side of me to vent it off here and stay focused, I will certainly find my wave and we shall constructively interfere.

Stay Focused, Daniel.

An Entanglement swapping in a quantum network. Using the electron spin in an NV center as a communication qubit and the nucleus spin as a memory qubit, the group entangled AB and BC, swapped entanglement at B, then teleported from C to A.

Previous teleportation protocols relied on directly connected nodes which so far has been hindered by the demanding requirements on the pre-shared remote entanglement, joint qubit readout and coherence time.

But hold on dear reader, we could go on and on discuss about the quantum jargons in this work, from the building blocks for future quantum network to the nitty-gritty of quantum teleportation and photon-matter interactions. The mathematics of quantum mechanics is straight forward but making the connection between the mathematics and the intuitive picture of the world is very hard. You can see that this could automatically discourage you to continue on in the next paragraph. Therefore let us turn to a thought experiment. There are reasons why Albert Einstein uses this type of experiments to explain most of his theories, especially the ones that the crowd cheered him for without a clue of its interpretations are, (Special Relativity).

A thought experiment: Imagine Alice and Bob, two happily married people, while Alice is away on a business trip, Bob meets Carol, who is married to Dave. Dave is also away at that time, on the other side of the world and nowhere near any of the other three. Bob and Carol become entangled with each other; they forget their respective spouses and now strongly feel that they are meant to stay a couple forever. Mysteriously, Alice and Dave- who have never met- are now also entangled with each other. They suddenly share things that married people do, without ever having met. If you substitute for the people in this story with A, B, C and D, then the bizarre outcome above actually occurs if particle A and B are entangled and so are C with D,then we can entangle the separated particle A and D by passing B and C through an apparatus that entangles them together.

Entanglement is a phenomenon in which two entities are inexorably linked no matter how far away from each other they may be, it is an integral part of nature.

In the former, a cost function is encoded as a choice of an Ansatze which minimises the expectation value equation, the Hamiltonian.

In the latter, the solutions of the equation is plugged into the eigen value problems to determine the ground state energy of a many body system, central to all of condensed matter #physics , #Chemistry, #Biology and Material Science.

But then what the big deal with determining ground state energy?
Well, if the potential of quantum systems in simulating other quantum system goes beyond the approximation in Computational counterparts like the Density Functional method, then an exact Simulations of ground state Energy of say, Iodine molecules could provide a lot more opportunities for a breakthrough in chemotherapeutic measures in annihilation of cancerous cells.

This is because, electrons in the ground state Energy of iodine are readily available to other energy levels. Given sufficient amount of Energy(x-ray), an electrons in the Iodine Molecules migrates from one Energy level to another, and then Energy in the form of photons are realised. Such Energy could be utilized for annihilation at the sites of cancerous cells during chemo.

What then is the big deal with Optimization Problems?
Well, if a cost function encodes the parameters of interests in the Objective of an Optimization Function are efficiently expressed in a Hilbert Space, then generalization could be cost effective and just as training towards convergence could readily achieved.

The Hilbert Space is a large vector space but with an extra feature, an inner product property.
Due this inner product property, it has the potential to encode features of very high dimensions, revealing patterns that can never be obtainable from classical Algorithms like Support Vector Machines or Neural Network. Provided the Qubits remain Coherent for as long as possible!

A web of entanglement- “Damn it! Nature isn’t classical!”

Quantum technology is a term to describe electronic materials and devices where effects caused by the quantum nature of matter become significant in their design and performance. Therefore a quantum computer is a computing device whose computational process can be explicitly described with the laws of quantum theory. The term #quantumcomputing then refers to the engineered coherent evolution of a number of quantum two-level systems of a 2-dimensional Hilbert space. Any #quantum particle that can be measured in two discrete states could be used as a qubit. But our capacity to observe quantum effects like superposition depends on being able to access the entire wavefunction which is the distribution of all the possible properties a system could have if you tried to measure it. As science is concerned only with observable things, we can observe an object only by letting it interact with some outside influence. Therefore the act of observation is necessarily accompanied by some disturbance of the object observed. However, as the quantum object interacts with the countless particles of a macroscopic environment and with each other, the web of entanglement grows so quickly that it soon becomes impossible to access the entire wave function. We call this decoherence.

Quantum entanglement occurs when multiple particles become correlated (related) in such a way that their characteristics depend on each other even when they are separated. This has been demonstrated experimentally and includes some counterintuitive results such as: if two particles have opposite spin directions (up vs down), then changing one particle’s spin will instantly change its entangled partner’s spin. This does not imply that information is propagated at the speed of light(as this famous misconception would violate Einstein’s postulates of special relativity), instead, information is correlated.

On the first day of this workshop, we will utilize the introductory section to discuss and explore these unfamiliar principles and concepts in quantum theory, we will also give you a Cinematic story of the origin of quantum theory, from Ultraviolet catastrophe to de-Broglie wavelength, from Young’s double-slit as a wave character of matter to the famous Feymann speech in May 1981, “Damn it! nature isn’t classical” We believe that most of our audiences are newcomers, so these stories would inspire them to ask intelligent in a direction where their curiosities would be fed right!.
In the following days, we will address these concepts in great detail and explore computations practically using python and qiskit Software development kit.
We look forward to seeing you around

When the transistor’s appearance was first announced in 1947, many scientists were reluctant to accept it. It took them years to acknowledge its existence. Only after creating various tests and experiments did they come to understand its meaning. Then, as the century passed and technology developed further, people found transistors to be upgraded into integratedcircuits with higher performance and lower costs. The same can be said about quantum computers which have long existed in scientists’ research labs but are now becoming increasingly practical.

While accelerating the development and commercialization of quantum technologies is essential to a Nation’s economy and security, a growing workforce is also crucial. In 2018, the U.S. government passed a National Quantum Initiative Act[1] to accelerate the development and commercialization of these technologies. While economic and national security purposes are important, the first purpose listed in the NQI Act is “to expand the number of researchers, educators, and students with training in quantum information science to develop a pipeline for new talent”.

With this vision, therefore, and the collaborations between QNigeria and QZimbabwe, we bring you a workshop on the basic introduction of quantum computing and best practices. Professionals prepared the workshop materials and for soft-landing for newly-coming participants. Therefore no knowledge of programming or quantum mechanics is assumed. We encourage you to be a part of this workshop, whether you are an academic, in the industry, or an enthusiast. The knowledge would empower you on the right track and the skill-sets required in Quantum industry 4.0.

Kindly follow the instructions in the registration link below as we await your arrival at the other side of an intriguing scientific adventure.

There is something about human behaviour, it is born out of the implications between mind evolution from the brain.

The brain gives rise to the mind since we don't even understand how it Control other obvious aspect of our being like being emotional. If Nostalgia is an electrochemical reaction in the brain, then why not emotions.

What does that have to do with , "a lot of happening out there".

If no one sees it, there would not be that conscious Connections between the brain's perception of the benefits in Crypto technology and the Understanding of the mind.

So I admonish you, my friend.
Provide videos, breaknews, where an instant of the technicalities in this technology has yielded positive outcomes.

My promise to you is that as much as so many persons here barely know the technicalities in the interaction of an algorithm with a stimulus coming into a sensor, controlling actuators to do the will of an algorithm, that same distribution of people barely hold a foundational understanding with this Business Model.

So they will barely interact.

But provides benefits, the Neurotransmitters would secret a chemical reactions where the outcome is a hunger to dig, mine and explore. An Andrenalin rush.

In the modern world of smartphones, social networks and Google, it is easy to forget that this is still a very new era for many people. The idea of having a phone in your pocket connected to everyone on the planet is still new for the majority of the world’s population. As Africa move towards an integrated market and to participating in the global economy, new innovations continue to advance. Although most of these technologies are still in their infancy, the race to take advantage of them in the next technological frontier is a real one.

A quantum leap in technology is the quantum computer that can now perform the same calculations that would take a traditional computer years in just a few days.
Quantum computers are being developed around the world, and Africa is well positioned to lead in this new field. The African continent has been at the forefront of scientific innovation throughout human history. A recent example is using genetic information from humans to develop new medications for diseases such as HIV/AIDS and cancer. Governments, industry and academia have all been leading forces in driving this technological development. It’s time for them to come together again on the next frontier: Quantum Technology for Growth.

I grew up in a community where only very few persons acquired bachelor’s education. I hardly have someone with whom I could share or discuss my ideas or someone who can give me direction whenever I need it. However, I became addicted to reading books in the local library in my town and picked up deliberate-positive-constructive mind wandering as another hubby. Before I gained admission to study physics at the university, I already understood the status of Physics in the 19th Century- At that time there were three main branches of physics: First, the Mechanics, which was designed to predict the motion of masses, which were influenced by gravity, then thermodynamics; which was concerned with the relation of heat and temperature to energy and forces. Finally, there was electromagnetism which dealt with the interactions between charged particles. It was during my first class in Modern Physics that I realized that it is between the realm of electromagnetism that the story of Quantum Mechanics begins; I realized that the breakdown of classical mechanics was not merely due to an inaccuracy in the laws of motion but the inadequacy of its concepts to supply us with a description of atomic events. Due to the affinity I had for electromagnetism, solid-state physics, Quantum electronics, by the end of my 5th year in the physics department, I had become convinced that much of the natural properties and behaviour of materials were functions of their electron composition. So I realized that much of our physical Universe is Condensed Matter.

For this reason, my bachelor project was on the gamma spectroscopic investigation of Radionuclide concentration in the soil treated with coal ash. The work aimed to investigate the negative effect of coal ash on the environment; however, it has unique physical and chemical properties to reduce soil Ph. Coal has some traces of radionuclide concentration.

After School, I saw an opportunity to work as a Research and Development Scientist in the first University embedded Science Park in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, as the building was still under construction, I was trained by the Swedish partners on Startup Incubation Model and Business development. At first, it seemed awkward and difficult to make such a drift given that I am a Physicist, a theoretical one at that. But as time went on, I normalized and emerged as a full-blown Startup Mentor, Business Developer and Technical Product Developer. In my two years of experience as an early-stage startup Engineer, my team and I pioneered the First National Innovation Summit and Competition in Nigeria- this was an opportunity to converge student-based startup builders across all regional Universities in Nigeria for an exhibition and pitch competition. I have also developed Startup Incubation Model (Graph-based team combinatorics algorithm for student founders), using the insights from the startup genome report, a comprehensive, in-depth research framework for cracking the innovation code of Silicon Valley designed by Steve blank, Alterwaider, Paul Graham and other reputable best critical players in the international startup ecosystem. I utilized the technique because it picks up the insights from Silicon Valley and finds the entrepreneurial profile that achieves success in the most critical aspect of a startup: design thinking and execution, innovation, fundraising and brand building.

While I was applying some basic graph-based algorithms in team building as a function of interpersonal/relational skill attributes and behaviour from historical data gathered from the students, I became fond of the Computational Learning theory. I realized that the more profound principles needed to understand learning were found in statistics, information theory and control theory. However, this motivated my choice of doing Masters in Electronic Control Engineering in the Unversity of Nigeria. Perhaps, I started to study Quantum Computing and Quantum Information Science on self-taught given that there is no one in that field here in Nigeria. As I plunged myself into the weird field, I realized that information is Physical! I recalled my old class notes on relativistic quantum mechanics from my undergraduate days. I had another revelation: an electron possesses an intrinsic angular momentum called spin. I was utterly perplexed because this intrinsic spintronic property of the electron was never mentioned in the conventional electronics classroom.

I would spend many nights on my hubby from the old days pondering the implication of these concepts in the principles of information theory, Learning theories and Control in general. I studied the famous Nielsen and Chaung’s, which was trivially regarded as the ‘’bible of Quantum Information Science’’. I collected more than 30 textbooks in Quantum Computing and Quantum Information Science (a repository in GitHub) and more than 100 research publications last year. I began to see the relationship between Unitary Operators/Matrices/transformation, Observables, Quantum Gates, Entropy and Hamiltonian, which is opaque, sometimes appears as gates, sometimes they appear as observables. This was a whole new idea for me as I needed to understand the connections between that decision-making in a stochastic environment. I had identified that the identification, estimation, and control issues are all tied together. Therefore embracing the nature of Quantum phenomena instead of forcing classical patterns into the quantum context seems like a good strategy. I resolved the principle of Entanglement as inseparable Quantum states, Superposition as two product states that produce Entanglement, and Hamiltonian, which takes the role of the cost function and its cost value as the system’s energy. I began to investigate the algebra of Hilbert space in which the electron and qubits live, probability theory upon the formulation of born’s postulate, Linear Algebra and Quantum Fourier transform, which currently, I realized that it is the building block for constructing entanglement.

However, the simulation uses a mathematical description or model of a natural system in a computer program. The model is composed of equations that duplicate the functional relationship within the biological system. But most quantum computational models consider a pure system. In reality, it will be tough, if not impossible, to create and maintain such systems at a large scale. Perhaps we cannot ignore Quantum field theory’s effects on qubits and associated quantum systems, a formulation of quantum mechanics that expresses the result of particles interactions in terms of fields, which are smooth functions defined over space and time. What role can the access to the inner product property of higher-dimensional Hilbert spaces play in applying Quantum Machine Learning In Quantum Chemistry? If the mathematical machinery of quantum mechanics allows us to compute the probability that the electron will be found here or there once measured, What does it mean to learn in a quantum world? -The plank scale where an electron has a noticeable wave effect. How does one predict the evolution of a quantum system over time? How do we overcome the obstacle in the physical implementation of quantum computation? Understanding how to map abstract qubits and quantum operations into physical hardware without decoherence. Quantum interference- (if Fourier transform plays a significant role in the state preparation and encoding, then the power of quantum computation lies in the ability to domesticate the interference by dividing the logic gates as simple steps. Each step is inherently quantum). I also think that the whole area of meteorology builds sensitive detectors simply because they can pick up the tiny phase difference introduced by a particular physical phenomenon and use quantum interference to detect it.

I wonder about these concepts and would continue to tell you more when i get back here..
